Just finishing up a contract with Gener8 doing stereoscopic conversion of Ghost Rider 2, which so far looks pretty good. I now have some official NukeX 6 experience under my belt. Sigraph is also in town and I will be there on Thurs.

I am currently seeking new contracts, My recent activity with Stargate Digital has come to a stop since the Vancouver studio has shut down for 2 months. I have finally completed my written shot breakdown and have added a download link to the breakdown reel. I will also be getting back to using Nuke and learning as much as I can of it.

Well, I guess it has been a year since I have put in an update here, but I have been contracting for Stargate Studios non stop and worked on many shows since Defying Gravity wrapped. We are now just wrapping Haven, a few episodes in on Human Target, and ocasionally doing driving comps for Life unexpected. In my time with Stargate I have worked on Heroes, Greys Anatomy, Greek, Trauma, Monk, the Gates, Parent Hood, a few pilots and a feature called "Big Bang". I may have some slow time coming up to update a demo with some new shots.

Blue shift: Blue shift is the phenomenon that the frequency of an electromagnetic wave (such as light) emitted by a source moving towards the observer is shifted towards the blue side of the electromagnetic spectrum (that is, its wavelength is decreased). It is the opposite of redshift.

The phenomenon of shifting wavelengths in frames of reference moving relatively to each other is commonly known as Doppler shift or Doppler effect.
